LONELY PLACES
There’s a distant shore I know of, an island in the sea, and every time I glimpse it there’s an ocean in between. If only I could reach out and feel those waves wash over me.
My heart lies in the sunset, my head in the night sky, they’re fighting some great battle, neither will subside. The sun it gives us meaning, the night gives the courage to see. When will we see?
Throughout all our wandering was a plain and simple truth. If only we had seen it, we would not depart from you, but our life lies in the struggle, our joy in discovering beauty in the lonely places.
Oh my friends, when will this tension ever end, did we give our hearts away? All my love, could it ever be enough, could I give it all away?
We ran out to that shore and laughed like younger men, every word was spoken as if it had never been, our hearts were never lighter, our love was never purer than then.
